Genome organization controls transcriptional dynamics during development

ABSTRACT: Past studies offer contradictory claims for the role of genome organization in the regulation of gene activity. Here, we show through high-resolution chromosome conformation analysis that the Drosophila genome is organized by two independent classes of regulatory sequences, tethering elements and insulators. Quantitative live imaging and targeted genome editing demonstrate that this two-tiered organization is critical for the precise temporal dynamics of Hox gene transcription during development. Tethering elements mediate long-range enhancer-promoter interactions and foster fast activation kinetics. Conversely, the boundaries of topologically associating domains (TADs) prevent spurious interactions with enhancers and silencers located in neighboring TADs. These two levels of genome organization operate independently of one another to ensure precision of transcriptional dynamics and the reliability of complex patterning processes.

Super-silencer perturbation by EZH2 and REST inhibition leads to large loss of chromatin interactions and reduction in cancer growth [4C-seq]

Project description:Human silencers have been shown to exist and regulate developmental gene expression. However, the functional importance of human silencers need to be elucidated such as the working mode and whether they can form “super-silencers”. Here, through interrogating two putative silencer components of FGF18 gene, we found that two silencers can cooperate via compensated chromatin interactions to form the “super-silencer”. Furthermore, double knock-out of two silencers exhibited synergistic upregulation of FGF18 expression and changes of cell identity. To disturb the “super-silencers”, we applied the combinational treatment of GSK343 and X5050 (“GR”). We found that GR led to severe loss of TADs and loops, while any single treatment only had mild changes. Such changes of TADs and loops may due to the decreased CTCF proteins upon the GR treatment. Moreover, GSK343 and X5050 can work synergistically to upregulated the super-silencer controlled apoptotic genes, thus gave rise to antitumor effects including apoptosis, cell cycle arrest and tumor growth inhibition. Overall, our data demonstrated the first example of “super-silencer” and showed that combinational usage of GSK343 and X5050 maybe the potential drug to curing cancers through disruption of “super-silencers”.

Super-silencer perturbation by EZH2 and REST inhibition leads to large loss of chromatin interactions and reduction in cancer growth [Cut&Run]

Project description:Human silencers have been shown to exist and regulate developmental gene expression. However, the functional importance of human silencers needs to be elucidated, such as whether they can form “super-silencers” and whether they are linked to cancer progression. Here, through interrogating two putative silencer components of FGF18 gene, we found that two nearby silencers can cooperate via compensatory chromatin interactions to form a “super-silencer”. Furthermore, double knockout of two silencers exhibited synergistic upregulation of FGF18 expression and changes of cell identity. To perturb the “super-silencers”, we applied combinational treatment of an EZH2 inhibitor GSK343, and a REST inhibitor, X5050 (“GR”). We found that GR led to severe loss of TADs and loops, while the use of one inhibitor by itself only showed mild changes. Such changes in TADs and loops were associated with reduced CTCF and TOP2A mRNA levels. Moreover, GSK343 and X5050 synergistically upregulated super-silencer-controlled genes related to cell cycle, apoptosis and DNA damage, leading to anticancer effects both in vitro and in vivo. Overall, our data demonstrated the first example of a “super-silencer” and showed that combinational usage of GSK343 and X5050 to disrupt “super-silencers” could potentially lead to cancer ablation.

RNA-seq of liver samples from adult Ryukyu mice (Mus caroli)

Project description:We explored the relationship between the evolutionary dynamics of CTCF binding and the functional stability of higher order genome structures, by performing ChIP-seq experiments in closely related Mus species or strains and intersecting with Hi-C-derived topologically associating domains (TADs) and expression data. To complement our data analyses, we generated RNA-seq libraries from two Mus caroli adult male individuals.

Hi-TrAC Detects Active Sub-TADs and Reveals Internal Organizations of Super-Enhancers

Project description:Eukaryotic genome spatial folding plays a key role in genome function. Decoding the principles and dynamics of 3D genome organization depends on improving technologies to achieve higher resolution. Chromatin domains have been suggested as regulatory micro-environments, whose identification is crucial to understand the genome architecture. We report here that our recently developed method, Hi-TrAC, which specializes in detecting chromatin loops among genomic accessible regulatory regions, allows us to examine active domains with limited sequencing depths at a high resolution. Hi-TrAC can detect active sub-TADs with a median size of 100kb, most of which harbor one or two cell specifically expressed genes and regulatory elements such as super-enhancers organized into nested interaction domains. These active sub-TADs are characterized by highly enriched signals of histone mark H3K4me1 and chromatin-binding proteins, including Cohesin complex. We show that knocking down core subunit of the Cohesin complex using shRNAs in human cells or decreasing the H3K4me1 modification by deleting the H3K4 methyltransferase Mll4 gene in mouse Th17 cells disrupted the sub-TADs structure. In summary, Hi-TrAC serves as a compatible and highly responsive approach to studying dynamic changes of active sub-TADs, allowing us more explicit insights into delicate genome structures and functions.

Distinct structural transitions of chromatin topological domains coordinate hormone-induced gene regulation

Project description:The three-dimensional (3D) organization of the genome within the cell nucleus contributes to cell-specific gene expression in different cell types1. High-throughput 3CM-bM-^@M-^Sderived methods have revealed that the genome is segmented into contiguous topologically associating domains (TADs), which help to orchestrate gene expression changes during differentiation and development2-5. Using ChIP-Seq, Hi-C and 3D modelling techniques, we reveal that TADs regulate the rapid gene expression changes induced by progestin in T47D breast cancer cells. In response to the hormone, TADs maintain their borders and operate as discrete regulatory units in which the majority of the genes are either transcriptionally activated or repressed. Additionally, the epigenetic signatures of the TADs are coordinately modified by hormone in correlation with the transcriptional changes. Hormone-induced changes in gene activity and chromatin remodelling are accompanied by structural changes that are distinct for activated or repressed TADs. Integrative 3D modelling revealed that TADs are structurally expanded if active and compacted if repressed, and that this is accompanied by differential changes in accessibility. We thus propose that TADs function as M-bM-^@M-^\regulonsM-bM-^@M-^] to enable spatially proximal genes to be coordinately transcribed in response to hormones. T47D-MTVL human breast cancer cells were incubated with the progestin R5020 for different times at 37M-BM-:C and prepared for ChIP-Seq or Hi-C according published protocols
